Thanksgiving 2006...absolutely fabulous!!

We traveled from Minnesota to Kentucky and back, seeing the new grandbaby and 2 of my brothers and their families along the way. The weather was gorgeous, the food at everyone's homes delicious, and the memories sweet. (The coffee and chocolate at John and Mir's really hit the spot!)

But holding my first grandchild was amazing. He's very calm and laid back (much like his parents) and has a sweet disposition. Feeding him was pure joy; but talking nonsense to him and watching him struggle to reply was the best!

This morning I returned to the elementary school where I work refreshed and ready to spend time with other little kids who need some of the love, care, and silliness I have to offer.
